With little fanfare, scandal-felled Tokyo Gov. Yoichi Masuzoe visited his office Monday in what is expected to be his final appearance at City Hall after announcing his resignation last week.

Masuzoe was expected to wrap up some final paper work at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building before officially stepping down on Tuesday. No ceremony is planned to see him off.

The governor decided to step down amid mounting pressure from both the ruling and opposition parties over his use of political funds, costly overseas business trips and frequent trips in an official car to visit his vacation home at a hot spring resort outside Tokyo.

"I thought it best to withdraw because I can no longer tolerate this prolonged political paralysis," Masuzoe said last Wednesday at a plenary session of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly.

Masuzoe has not spoken in public since and skipping his last regular news conference on Friday. He also has no plans to address the media on Tuesday.

Masuzoe is the second Tokyo governor to resign in less than three years. Governors usually serve four-year terms.

The latest scandal has tarnished the image of the capital ahead of the 2020 Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The election to pick his successor is slated for July 31.
